Moved on to what?

Not other jobs, obviously.

Unemployment insurance for income, eviction moratorium (reducing expenses), maybe, but that's all ending.

Lower income standard of living? More efficient higher density households? Dropping out of the rat race?

Unemployment rate is at 6%, which isn't perfect, but pretty low all things considered.

Unemployment (in this sense) does not count those who are not (any longer) searching for jobs.
